Museo de arte moderno Jesus Soto

The Jesús Soto Museum of Modern Art is a modern art museum in Ciudad Bolívar, Venezuela. It is named after the kinetic artist and sculptor Jesús Soto, who was born in Ciudad Bolívar. The building, which opened in 1973, is a late work of the Venezuelan architect Carlos Raúl Villanueva.

We owe the design of the museum to another great master of the Venezuelan arts, the architect Carlos Raúl Villanueva. This work reflects, once again, his creative capacity capable of integrating architectural design with painting, sculpture, landscape and man. Important works from the private collection of Maestro Soto are exhibited in the museum during the 50s and 60s during his stay in Europe. You can see works of artistic trends such as: structuralism, neoplasticism, optical art, kinetic, monochromatic, geometric art and concrete art, among others, by more than 130 artists from around the world, in addition to important works by Jesus himself Soto has three exclusive rooms for his creations.
